Overall Satisfaction with Nutanix AHV

I have had an excellent experience on Nutanix AHV, which is best in migration from cross-hypervisor platform to AHV and easy to use. Nutanix AHV gives us smooth integrations and powerful management tools.

Pros

  • Seamless integration and simplified management interface
  • We can extend/increase CPU-Memory-Disk on running VMS
  • Quick and smooth management, with less resource utilizations with respect from any others hypervisors
  • Migration capabilities for cluster wise and remote zones wise
  • Quick deploy any kinds of images and smooth network management

Cons

  • Sometimes any change done, alert is showing multiple times in any one changes
  • Limited Hardware Compatibility
  • Limited Third-Party Support
  • Nutanix Beam helps enable enterprises to take control of their total cloud spend with automated cost governance policies. Beam provides Unified visibility into public and private cloud spending, including clusters, VMs, and other services.
  • Lower administrative overhead, increased employee productivity, and costs savings.
  • Nutanix AHV is also generally free to use, which can benefit organizations with budget constraints.
Simple and Unified management experience. Nutanix AHV's tight integration with Nutanix Prism management interface offers a streamlined experience for managing virtualized environments. AHV is also generally free to use, which can benefit organizations with budget constraints.
Nutanix AHV offers simplified management and cost-effectiveness benefits.

One of my previous roles, we switched from dell servers with nimble storage arrays over to Nutanix AHV. Nutanix actually has a contract with Dell so you can get Dell nodes rather than supermicro. I can't speak to the supermicro ones, because we deployed the Dell Nutanix nodes. Nutanix AHV support is very very good. The only annoying part about our support experiences with Nutanix was that Dell required us to engage dell, and dell would connect us to Nutanix.
